When it fits

    Guidance on application follow-up

The expected handover

The agreed search review, application and filing acknowledgement; examination and later registration stages follow separately.

Your engagement confirms the final deliverables and any separately scoped work.
Before we begin

Prepare the right records.

Start with the information below. The final checklist depends on your circumstances, the application or reporting route, and the recipient’s requirements.

Applicant and ownership records

Identity or entity details and assignments, consents or other evidence of ownership where relevant.

History and correspondence

Earlier use or disclosure, application numbers, examination reports and relevant communications.

Records for this service

Applicant details, clear mark or logo, goods/services, use history and relevant earlier applications.

How it works

From review to handover.

  1. 01

    Review the rights and route

    Identify the mark, work, invention or design, its ownership and the filing or response stage.

  2. 02

    Prepare the submission

    Review the classification, representations, evidence or specialist drafting required for the work.

  3. 03

    Approve and file

    Obtain approval of the agreed application or response and retain its submission record.

  4. 04

    Plan the next stage

    Explain examination, responses, hearings or renewal work that may follow and confirm what is included.

Plan before you begin

Know the scope, cost and timing.

What affects the quote

Applications, classes, representations, drafting complexity and applicant category can affect fees. Confirm government charges and whether searches, objections, hearings or later stages are included.

What affects the timeline

Preparing and filing an application is different from completing examination or obtaining registration. Authority reviews and third-party challenges can extend the overall process.

After this work

Keep application and ownership records, monitor communications and renewal dates, and review whether further responses or changes need separate action.
